Abstract

Orthogonal signal-division multiplexing (OSDM) is a newly emerged modulation scheme which provides a generalized framework unifying conventional orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) and single-carrier frequency domain equalization. In this letter, a space-frequency block coding (SFBC) scheme based on OSDM is proposed for time-varying underwater acoustic channels. The receiver processing includes Doppler compensation, channel estimation, space-frequency decoding, and equalization. Simulation and experimental results demonstrate its superiority over the existing SFBC-OFDM counterpart.
